Table 1.

Training sessions included in the reasoning cognitive training Packages

Training session Task Main outcome measure
Reasoning 1 Use weight relationships, implied by the position of two seesaws with objects at each end, to select the heaviest object from a choice of three. Total number of correct trials across the two runs.
Reasoning 2 Select the “odd one out” from four shapes that varied in terms of color, shape, and solidity (filled/unfilled). Total number of correct trials across the two runs.
Reasoning 3 Move crates from a pile, each move being made with reference to the effect that it would have on the overall pattern of crates and how the result would affect future moves. Total number of correct trials across the two runs.
Planning 1 Draw a single continuous line around a grid, planning ahead such that current moves did not hinder later moves. Number of problems completed in three minutes.
Planning 2 Move objects around between 3 jars until their positions matched a “goal” arrangement of objects in 3 reference jars. Total number of correct trials across the two runs.
Planning 3 Slide numbered “tiles” around on a grid to arrange them into the correct numerical order. Number of problems completed in 3 min.

This table was taken and modified from Corbett et al. (2015). All sessions consisted of two 90 s “runs.”
